Savior Hewitt, Mayor of New York City, was invited to speak at a reception rendered to Governor lIjll. by the Young Mems Democratic Club of Brooklyn last Tuesday. h. stead of attending the reception in person, the chump sent letter which he naturally expected would be read. Notso, however; the clctter was suppressed. The United "Dem- ocrats' of New York city were in- dIgnant Hewitt reckIesslv tore the hair from his wig. They demanded an explanation. It has since trans pred that Tn view of the contents of the letter, !. e', the uncomplmcnt- ary references to the laborer, Gov ernor Hill refused to appear if the letter was presented.
 Following are the objectionable extracts which led the Brooklyn "democrats' to throw Hewitt over.
 'lt is incredible that in the North where the fruits of the government and oi the personal right of each man to em- Pioy himself according to his own will nave been so conspicuously demonstrated by the growth of hundred years, any man would be willing to sacrifice his personal independence and yield it to ip- norant, selfish and interruptions leaders. uslng this power only for their personal advantage.
 "At this point not only the Constitu- ton of the country is attacked, but its progress ln wealth will be checked and all incentive to special effort in order to achieve the larger rewards due to skill and genius will be arrested.

A SAMPLE DISPATCH.
News That Made American Socialists
 Feel Good Last Tuesday.

Even the capitalistic press was forced to admit the onward march of Socialism during the past week, when the news of the advance made in Germany was flashed over the Atlantic cables. The following is one of the dispatches published last Tuesday morning;
 HAMBURG, February 21.-The Social, lsts swept the whole city, eIecting all three of the candidates which Hamburg sends to the Reichstag. The excitement IS unprecedented The result is con sldered extraordinary in view of the dragooning and open intimidation to which the Socialists were subject during the canvass. At the last previous elec- tion the Socialists here elected two mem bers to the Reichstag. The news that loO,OoO Socialists votes were boiled in Berlin, where the Socialist meetings were dispersed by the police. has just been received, and has created q sensa- ton, The Socialists are full of enthusl asn and triumph. They say that how ever the election goes throughout Ger many It k not Septennate nor an anti Septennatc victory, but a socialist vic tory.

A HINT TO PREACHERS

The labor-saving machines are a bene- tlt to the world at large, no sensible man will deny, but that they are also attended at present with many evils every intelIi- gent man is forced to admit How can we get rid of these evils, what steps shall we take SO that these labor-savine ma chimes will do good only and not harm to mankind? This a question of the ut most importance. It is worthy of the most earnest attention of our best and wIsest men. Would not our preachers do well to devote their time and thoughts to this and similar questions? When I reflect that preachers are intelligent and educated, that they are honored and ac- tually reverenced by the best people in the land, that they have the very noblest opportunities to teach and influence their fellow beings, can not help think ing that they ought to promote much more than they do the earthly happiness of mankind They ought to blush with shame and modification when they re- fleet that there is still so much poverty and misery in the world.
 Why will they not at least patiently investigate for themselves the teachings of Socialism: Why will they not assist with all their heart us poor people in our contest with sorlless corporations, DOW eriul monopoles and interruptions rich men whose only God is dirty dollar? Suppose the soul which once animated the body of Jesus should once more ami mate the body of some man, which side of this contest would that man take.

 That this meeting of the General Council of the Social-Democratic Federal ton joins with the Socialists of other countries m heartily congratulating their cunrade, Anseele, on the expiration of the sentence of six months imprisonment passed on him for having appealed to the soldiers and gendarmes not to fire on their brothers, the workers, during the great strikes in the early part of last year, and expresses it's cordial sympathy with their Belgian fellow workers who have shown such untiring energy and jealous devotion to the cause of the working classes.

 Secretary Lee states also that the disturbances at ClcrkenwelI on the eighth inst, which were greatly magnlfied by the capitaIistic press, were not ln any way due to the ac- tlon of the SociaI-Dcmocratic Fed erAtlon, as that organization was en- tIreIy opposed to holding torch light procession to celebrate the riots of February s, 1886, and passed resolutions to that effect.

CONFEDERATE DEAD.

Above this is the die seven feet in
height by four and one-half feet square,
with four highly polished panels On the
west side is the inscriptions;
This monument is erected at the place of his
birth by a surviving comrade to commemorate
the virtues of the Confederate dead, A. d.,
1887
On the north panel is the following in-
scriptioa:
Beneath this sod is mingled the dust OF l0f
unknown soldiers, who were attached to the
following commands First Mississippi regi-
ment Second Mississippi reIiment, Seventh
Texas regiment, Eighth Kentucky regiment,
Forests cavalry and Greene's Kentucky ar
tillery War between the States, lS5l-1s65.
On the east panel is engraved the senti-
ment:
While martyrs for conscience sake are re-
spected. the valor and devotion of the Con-
federate soldiers will be admired by the good
and the brave.
On the panel facing the south is the in
| scription:
Round this column is buried all the herois m
| that could die.
| The north and south sides OF the die are
decorated with bronze cannons and the
east and west sides with laurel wreaths,
| Above the die is a plain square shaft
twelve feet high. On the front of the
shaft are two crossed swords, with
laurel wreath. The structure is
| ornamented with Corinthan
| cap-stone bearing on its summit
| a pyramid of five polished granite cannon
balls, eighteen inches in diameter. The
entire structure is thirty-seven and one
| half feet in height. At the approach to
the monument from the south SIDE is an
ornamental entrance Of granite eight feet
wide. On the posts Of the entrance are
engraved branches of laurel and oak, and
underneath an antique dagger enclrcled
| by a wreath of laurel.
The lot in which the monument stands
is one of the most beautiful spots in
Southwestern Kentucky, and was select
ed by the donor of the monument who,
at his own expense, had the remains o.
the unknown soldiers removed from tho
ground in which they rested for mora
than twenty years, placed in
new boxes and Durisd side
by side in new lot. The new
resting-place for the Confederate dead is
laid of in nearly the shape of heart, Is
beautifully sodded and is bordered by
granite curbing. In addition to this gen.
erous work he had the drives through the
grounds graveled with Paducah conglom-
crate gravel, all the surplus trees re-
moved and every tombstone on the ground
stralghtened-in fact nothing was left
undone to beautify the grounds for the
| occasion.
